About
A natural wax from rose (Rosa hybrid) flowers (Latin "cera" = wax). Nice emollient for balms and lip products; minor fragrance-allergen caveat.
Rosa Hybrid Flower Cera (CAS 93062-88-5) is the Latin-form INCI for rose flower wax, identical in composition to Rosa Hybrid Flower Wax (id 31876). It consists of the floral wax byproduct of rose essential oil extraction — long-chain hydrocarbons, esters, and minor fragrance-family components. Used as emollient/thickener in balms, lipsticks, and natural-positioning cosmetics. Safe in general; the trace EU 26-allergen fragrance components (geraniol, citronellol, linalool) should be labeled if above threshold. No dedicated CIR review.
